preloading slin pins?

i have to wake up early on the weekends and i was wondering is it ok to preload slin pin with test the night before? i just don't want the plastic to melt off or something, last time i accidently got a couple drops on my fingers since i had to pull the syringe out during the backload since i was losing my grip on the slin pin and when i got everything situated again the oil from my fingers got on the outside of the slin pin and the ink was coming off (the ink that shows the units). so would anything like that happen to the plastic part? also would there be any higher chance of bacteria or contamination? i was thinking to put the slin pin in a zip lock bag and put an alcohol pad inside and maybe the next morning even wipe off the plunger with another alcohol pad.

or you think i should just wake up earlier? i always try to tell myself to just wake up early but, never able to always end up late lol
 
ok i was just wondering about the plunger since it has to be almost all the way out since it's going to be a full 1 cc, so you think if the plunger area touches the ziplock bag it will still be ok? or should i wipe it with an alcohol pad in the morning?

thanks
 
The alcohol may eat the rubber part of the syringe, or something along that nature. Just inject the night before from now on..? Or maybe wake up 5 minutes earlier..? You really can not find a plausible solution to your weekend 'I'm to tired to inject' problem?:nopity:
 
what are you talking about, "You really can not find a plausible solution to your weekend 'I'm to tired to inject' problem?".. you don't know anything else because I never stated anything like that you're just assuming bullshit. I never fucking said I was too tired to inject, I've been injecting each and every damn time, all I said was that I TRY to wake up early and usually CANNOT (I'm a very heavy sleeper) and so I end up going LATE to work but, I still DO the injection.

I did say in the end, "should I just try to wake up early" that if that's what you guys think I should do then, I'll just continue trying to do that.

You really try hard to be a smart-ass don't you? When you first answered it, was all I needed that the alcohol will eat the rubber. It doesn't take no 5 min. at least for me, sometimes it takes a while getting the oil out, maybe i'm just more cautious and go slower can take me about 20 min but, with backloading slin even longer. Obviously if it took just 5 min for me then I wouldn't be posting about that now would I? It wouldn't be a problem then. Even then it's not that big of a deal even if I'm late, I own the store so big deal if I show up late I'm not going to get fired but, I just would prefer to be on time. I never said that "i'm too tired to inject" - keep your bullshit to yourself, go get a life spending too much time on here is making you the wannabe ology know-it-all smartass.

EDIT: I see I didn't mention the work part and going in late but, still I never said I was too tired to do it or that I don't or anything like that.

You just wasted a whole paragraph regurgitating the same "i never said i was a tired guy" many many times. Its depressing that we have to tell grown men to wake up a few minutes early, but your excuse is that you are a heavy sleeper. That is something my unborn child would say. Just wake the fuck up. You must not be to serious about this testosterone replacement therapy thing if you can not even wake your self up to inject a better future. Either inject the night you preload from now on, or wake up. Hell here is a healthly tip for you,fill your sink up with the hottest water and let it cover the vial only about half way and swirl it for a minute or 2, then draw with the insulin needle, Will take no time at all. And to get off topic, as you did with irrelevant information about your 'business', I hope you do not scold your employes when they are late, as you are the example setter.
 
again you're being a smartass mother fucker go back to jacking off to maxim. me not being able to wake up in the morning has nothing to do with my goals, you don't know how hard i'm working towards my goals, or how well i'm controlling my diabetes now because of how much i'm working out and how clean i'm eating, you don't know that my 270 blood glucose before i started therapy and working out was at 67 the other day, you don't know that even if i eat bread it doesn't go past 110 (after meals) on anyday, this is normal people's sugar levels and all this is because of hard work I put in to my therapy and goals. it's all because of the therapy, diet, and working out no diabetes meds at all. you don't know how well i'm controlling my alcoholism now because of the hard work i'm putting in. i did say that i would just continue waking up early if that would be recommended instead, and that is what i'm going to do instead of preloading.

you don't know shit smartass. you don't know that i have insomnia that's why i have difficulty waking up. if i only get 4 hrs of sleep by the time i have to wake up i'm in a deep sleep and because it's hard for me to get to sleep once i'm actually a sleep it would be natural for my mind to not want to wake up because it hardly gets to. this isn't an excuse, i've mentioned my insomnia here before that's why i turned to alcohol a long time, it was the only way for me to get sleep. now i'm trying to fix my lifestyle and the damage i've done and so now i have trouble with sleep again from time to time, hopefully it will continue to improve with therapy, i feel it is but it's different on weekdays when I can try to get to sleep and not have to worry about waking up early, so if i get to sleep at 4am it's not a problem since i can wake up at 12pm but, if i get to sleep at 4am on the weekends then it's difficult if i have to be up at 7am. so, i take your attack as me having difficulty waking up as an excuse because of tiredness, i take personal or that i must not want to better myself if i can't wake up. i never considered taking the shot before sleep since i always thought it should be at the same time each day so that's how I've been trying to do it.

there's a reason people don't like you here dude, get a clue. you need to watch your fucking mouth. yoiu know damn well this isn't the first time you're being called out for being a smartass. you try to act so hard to not sound like a loser but, we can see right through you man.

i will say that at times, you can be helpful but, you are one annoying keyboard warrior

I honesty don't know why guys pin their gear with these fucking slin pins, I do have an ideal but fuck that's a slow ass injection plus you can't even get 1cc out of it unless you don't aspirate.
 
it's not that slow really, with the 23g needles or whatever it is it goes too fast for me, with the slin pins it takes about 20/30 sec. seems to go smoother for me, with glutes i have to be careful i'm not going too fast and slow down. but about the 1cc thing i agree.

Ok, 23g that's as different story. I heard mostly people using 29 and even 30g on their shit lol that's why I said it. Get 3cc syringes so your can aspirate and get your full 1ml. I'm not knocking you method bro, just making a suggestion.

no worries, appreciate the suggestion. can you shoot delts with the 29g / 30g ? i need to find alternate sites than glute and delts are pretty easy.
 
also i apologize if i'm being harsh like i said you can be helpful, i only started trying delts because you suggested it in another thread and heating up the vial and withdrawing directly into slin pin is another good comment will try that as well. just took your snyde comments personally, you can be helpful and pretty cool without having to try to be rude to make yourself look better infront of everybody

It's not a problem going into the delt with a 29 gauge slim pin.

I just don't understand the whole heat it up thing. I've never have a problem where I had to warm anything up. Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) goes in at frig temp, everything else at room temp. But I do draw T with a 23 gauge and backload if going into a slim pin.

well i believe he's saying if you heat it up that you can withdraw the test directly into a slin pin instead of backloading so saving me some time in the morning (though I guess heating it up probably takes just as much time). but i think for me it really would make things much easier i mean i'm sure i'll get used to the backloading over time but, it's kind of awkward for me doing it and having to be extra careful about what you're touching, putting the plunger back in correctly etc, the first couple times i've done it i've even stupidly screwed it up where a little bit of oil came through the other end. so if i could extract it directly into slin pin would be much better for me. it's just hard for me to believe that you can actually extract it with a slin pin but, i guess it wouldn't hurt to try, would be pretty neat if it works.

I know guys do that with the delts and they said it's a painless injection. In that case, I would just get the 3cc 27g with a 5/8 pin and inject, that's pretty painless, not to metion if my gear seems rough, I just cut it with grape seed oil and warm in up with boiling hot water.
 
Bros, do me a solid and post the stock number of the syringe. My local pharmacy keeps ordering 1/2 cc 30g. I need a full 1cc/ml 29-31 gauge.
 
Not trying to be a jerk, but why the requirement for the small pins? I have been using 25g 1" 1cc in the glutes and it is pretty painless. I do draw with an 18g, and haven't had any issues tearing up stoppers or anything. That reminds me, I need to put in an order for more pins with my nurse friend....lol.

When I was on HRT, I used 31 g 5/16" in the delts and it was absolutely the most painless pin I've have ever done.

I was injecting 100mg of test cyp every 84 hours and I was about to move to pinning 50 mg of Test cyp EOD.

There is no way I'd ever inject more than once a week with a 25 g needle. That literally becomes a pain in the butt.

With insulin pin, I could inject EOD without even thinking twice about.

It is purely a comfort issue.
